Hot Cross Bun Macarons

Oh yes. I did. You may have read my last post  where I mentioned I was working on something a little different to share with you this Easter. And this is it. I did it over Christmas with Gingerbread Macarons and wanted to see if I could do the same thing with hot cross buns. Well, it took a couple of tries to get the filling right, but here we have them … Continue reading →

Homemade Chocolate Hazelnut Baci Chocolates

Oh my gosh. I made homemade chocolate hazelnut spread (aka Nutella) the other day. And it blew my mind. I made it at work, and used it to fill chocolate shortbread sandwich cookies. Then I ate a large portion of it with a spoon, before making another double batch, and turning that into little homemade Nutella tarts to sell in the cafe. Man oh man, why haven’t I gotten onto … Continue reading →

I have three words for you. Oh. My. Gosh. You are going to love these.

Creme Brûlée

So, about a year ago, I sat down and wrote a list of goals for 2012. It was a spur of the moment thing, I’m not even sure what motivated me to do it, and the list was just quickly tapped into my iPhone notes. I then proceeded to immediately forget all about it. Completely. I didn’t think about it again. Not once. Until a month or so ago that … Continue reading →

I have an exam on in a week. My last ever public relations exam for my college degree. My last ever exam for my college degree. Ever. Ever. And I haven’t even opened a book. Quite literally. I set aside today to study. But it was warm and sunny. So I sun-baked. I went for a long walk. I made lunch. Then I made peanut butter. I turned the peanut … Continue reading →

Homemade Peanut Butter

We are making peanut butter today! All by ourselves. And you need all of two things: 1) Peanuts 2) A food processor Easy! I made peanut butter for the first time in Berlin earlier this year when I had a baking day with Erin from Texanerin Baking. I was absolutely amazed as the food processor whizzed and whizzed and turned her peanuts into a spread. I couldn’t believe how easy … Continue reading →

Black Bean Brownies

So I want to be a pastry chef, right? And I’m pretty sure I go to culinary school, where I study patisserie. And I go to classes, where I like, bake stuff. And last time I checked, I worked at a cupcake shop, where like five times a week, I bake stuff. And I think I have a blog, which I bake stuff for all the time. And I want … Continue reading →

Healthy Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie

So this is me trying to be healthy. All the bread and petit fours I have been baking in my course, all the pretzel chocolate chip peanut butter truffle brownies I have been eating and all the procrastinating I have been doing has been making me feel a little heavy. So much so, that I was even inspired to go for a run recently. So instead of going on a … Continue reading →

Walnut Chocolate Chip Bean Brownie Cake

So I fell so absolutely, head over heels in love with these healthy cookie dough balls, that I have since baked them three times, and would happily eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Hey, the main ingredients are like, chickpeas and peanuts, so they are like, a healthy protein snack, right? Never mind all the chocolate that’s in there, it gets cancelled out by all the chickpeas. Anyway, so … Continue reading →

Healthy Protein Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls

I just got back from a holiday in Europe a few days ago. I had the absolute best time, filled with laughter, sunlight and fantastic family and friends. I spent some time in Poland visiting my family and all my friends, traveled with some Australian friends, visited Budapest and spent a few days in Berlin. And in Berlin, I was lucky enough to meet up with Erin from Texanerin Baking! … Continue reading →
